Designer Vaginas

OK, so perhaps my first blog post in ages shouldn't be about something so, well, unimportant, but it's tough for me to come across a story about the so-called "last frontier" in cosmetic surgery and not make comment.

The Washington Postreports that the starkly named Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Institute of Washington (gosh, ladies, how about leaving a little mystery?) is pushing the ... um .. envelope in the cutting-edge field of vaginal aesthetics (on second thought, maybe cutting-edge isn't the right description):

"Critics and supporters of vaginal cosmetic surgery say the mainstreaming of graphic images, including pornography, is fueling demand.

"[Obstetrician-gynecologist Christopher] Warner and [gynecologist David] Matlock say that patients frequently request 'a nice sleek look' similar to images seen in Playboy magazine and on some cable TV channels."

Now, I'm no expert on bioethics, but I have grave concerns about the slippery slope of vaginal rejuvenation.

Other than bilateral symmetry, is there really any consensus on what makes an attractive pussy?

Having worked in multimedia for medical and scientific research for way too long, I've seen lypo done around the exterior of the labia majora to increase sensitivity (if your clit is enveloped excessive in blubber it doesn't get as much stimulation) and a few other procedures that just make some basic mechanical sense. This is a whole other level of modification.

All levity aside, I'm dying of curiosity. I'm hunting around web sites for before and after pics or sketches; has anyone seen any?

Dr. Loeb performs excellent labial reduction surgery for women suffering from asymmetrical and abnormally large labia minora (inner lips) and/or labia majora (outer lips). Enlarged and asymmetrical vaginal lips may lead to self-consciousness and discomfort in some women while wearing clothing, exercising, or during sexual intercourse. Dr. Loeb’s uses his artistic eye and touch to sculpt and reshape the labia minora and majora producing astonishing results and very natural looking vaginal lips.You can find more informations at http://www.lbialdr.com
